I suffered from knee dislocation for more than 12 years and no Otho gave a positive suggestion or had the expertise handle this situation.
Finally on May 15th 2018 I was informed about Dr Omar Sherrif and his expertise. He referred Astra hospital as he does his cases there. During my consultation, I was introduced to other expert doctors Dr Bhanu Prakash and his team. All the doctors explained the entire process, gave more clarity on the process.
On 13th of August first knee was operated successfully, post operative care was out of the world, the dedication by the doctors and staff was amazing. Dr Bhanu Prakash and Dr Omar Sherrif visited every day and also had constant contact to ensure things were smooth. Since it’s a major operation they were very cautious about all aspects. Nurses kept visiting very ofter to ensure about swelling, pain, made sure medications were taken on time. The second knee was operated on 21st of August and now everything is perfect.
The board of doctors and all their faculty are well experienced. The hospital treats each patient unique , make sure they are always comfortable, doctors visit every patient every day, if there is any alterations in the vitals they take cautious care, they don't rush for conclusions, they wait and observe and ensure things turn to normal. All treatments they do are to the purpose and is needed.
I spent 15 days since its two knees, it was like a breeze. I very strongly recommend Astra hospital, the doctors with their entire team. I also thank them for their service.
No matter where you are in the world, if you are suffering from any ortho issues, you can go for Astra hospital with no doubt.

Visited For Foot Pain
Doctor was calm and addressed the patient(my mother) in polite manner. X-ray was taken and told us there is no fracture.He prescribed some medicines. But suggested P-O-P for her foot. But it turned out to be a normal sprain and she became ok within a day. The treatment was good but was the application of POP really necessary??
X-ray. 1100rs
POP Charges. 1300rs.
Consultation and application of POP. 1500rs
Medicine 300rs..
At the time of injury we did not hesitate to put POP but it turned out to be a simple sprain.
So 4000rs for a simple sprain is really costly!!

I booked an appointment at 09 45, later they called and asked me to come at 10 15, the doc came at 11 00. Also i felt the cost of X ray is too high. Other than that the doctor was friendly, spent time inspecting the issue and was very helpful.
The nurses were not friendly and they got irritated even on a small query
